Known Flaws:

Tape flip after My Friend, My Friend
Chalkdust is from a different source with the same lineage due to an issue on the first set of tapes.
Drop out in Curtis Loew, possibly a tape flip or turn on the master as this was on both sources.
Tape flip in Weekapaug see if you can hear it.

Show notes:

Ending of Fluffhead and beginning of My Friend, My Friend had Trey on acoustic guitar
Mimi Fishman on vacuum for Lengthwise
Baby Elephant Walk tease in My Friend, My Friend

Source Notes:

(M. Lavoie)
I was one of the student producers for the show along with Rich Simon (see Relix contributing editor).  So were in touch with Dionysian to arrange the show. He did the heavy lifting with the administration, and I got to do more of the fun stuff.

I stayed in touch with Shelly about getting a tape for posterity for Colgate -- I was always bummed they didn't have a good recording of the Dead from 11/4/77. She accommodated me...  The tapes came from Dionysian to me, I ran a few copies, then gave them to the library. It's my opinion that the only reason they sent them was because I always said they'd go to Colgate. So the original analog masters should still be there.
